My guess is load factor is probably not the limiting factor, dynamic pressure (Q) is. Above 189 mph, the sum of lift and drag is likely approaching the structural limit of the extension. Whereas, at Va, the max load factor can't generate enough Q to break the extensions. That is the way it was described in a paper I downloaded last week. |
